This makes dancers SO NERVOUS!

Do you feel a a bit nervous when you pick up your finger cymbals because you’re not sure WHAT you should be playing? You are not alone!

I am approached by dancers all the time who feel a bit lost when they find themselves with zills on their hands, music in the air and the expectation that they are supposed to just starting playing something. It can be a little scary, especially if you are under the impression that you could possibly make the “wrong” choice.

I’m here to tell you that you have a lot more options than you might think, and that short of playing something that is not in tempo with the music or doing something non-committal and sloppy, there aren’t too many choices that I would characterize as “incorrect.”

In this video we are going to explore 3 basic ways you can choose to play your zills. There are definitely more ways to be explored, but these three will get you started confidently playing your finger cymbals the next time the music begins to play.

Are you ready to dive in deeper so you can put together fabulous zill patterns of your own? Check out my signature course – Acapella Finger Cymbal Foundations – an online course that will have you composing and playing your own fabulous zill riffs like a pro in no time!
